The Past Performance Questionnaire (W912QG26QA003) is a critical document used by the South Carolina Army National Guard for source selection in federal government RFPs. It requests detailed past performance information from contractors, focusing on their ability to successfully execute proposed efforts. The questionnaire is divided into sections for contract identification, customer/agency identification, evaluator identification, and a comprehensive evaluation. Evaluators rate contractors on various elements like program management, mobilization, quality of service, schedule, staffing, and cost, using a defined rating scale (Exceptional to Unsatisfactory). The document emphasizes providing narrative explanations for ratings, especially for high or low scores, and includes an overall satisfaction assessment. It also asks about contract terminations and future reservations about soliciting the contractor. Completed questionnaires are to be emailed to kevin.j.esber.mil@army.mil by December 18, 2025, and are considered source selection sensitive information.
